Hello
My GT Sanction Expert is only 5 weeks old... But today Its started to make this noise:

I use DMR V8 Pedals and they are sufficiently greased both inside the alan keyhole and on the threads. What could be causing this noise? It's driving me mad while cycling

Thank you

    I listened to that twice and all I could hear was wind noise, no clicking.
    Maybe my hearing could be better. I agree that an odd noise needs chasing down before it becomes an expensive noise, so don't give up!

    No. Definitely two clicks per crank rotation.

    But again it is another one of those problems where it is guesswork unless you have access to the bike.

    Trouser zips clicking on the top tube?

    Go through an elimination routine:

    Does it only do it when you are on the bike and moving?
    Pedalling or not?
    Seated or not?
    Bike speed dependent or not? (ie wheel rotation speed)
    Gear dependent or not?
    And so forth.
